Chapter 111: Haystack
Xu Ji was dragged to the periphery, and Song Wushou and Ma Jin followed closely.
Duan Siyong was originally a person in the palace of the king of Guangling, who once served Xu Ji, and wandered to Qinzhou, joined the Incarnation Army, and after recognizing Xu Ji, he immediately dragged him out and led him to a secluded place.
"Childe is too careless, if he is discovered by the Hundred Eyes Heavenly King...... Duan Siyong glanced into the distance, and saw that Xu Dashi was still generously speaking to a large number of soldiers, and he was a little relieved.
"How did Iron Kite's Yizhou Army become the Incarnation Army?" Xu Ji asked.
"Alas, it's a long story, I knew that today, I might as well follow my son."
"It's not necessarily a good thing to follow me, Chang Yanzhi has been killed."
Duan Siyong was startled, sighed, and glanced at Xu Ji's two entourage.
"They're all credible people." Xu Jidao.
"Well, not long after Gongzi left, the Hundred Eyes Heavenly King killed the Shenxing Heavenly King and took all the grain and grass of the Gong army, but before he was happy for a few days, He Rongren suddenly killed, we are not opponents, and there were countless casualties, so we had to flee to Hanzhou and surrender to General Tie. General Tie was in need of people at that time, and he was also from the Incarnation Army, so he took us in and guarded Hanzhong City and Baoxie Valley Road together. But Lou Changshi's side was lost, and He Rongren entered Hanzhou, so we had to give up the valley road and defend the city. If you want to talk about General Tie, it is a true hero who values love and righteousness, and if he says that he is defending the city, he must defend it to the end, and he will not even listen to the will of the king of Shu......"
Duan Siyong continued to say, Xu Ji actually already had a general understanding.
Lou Yan felt guilty, persuaded Tie Kite to retreat, and led the Hanzhou soldiers to attack the He Rong camp at night, Tie Kite took the Yizhou soldiers and the descendant army to escape, and was pursued all the way, with huge casualties, the only fortunate thing is that because of the defeat of Xiangyang, only in the transfer of generals, the checkpoint between Han and Yi left very few people, and was vulnerable, and Tie Kite was able to lead the troops to enter the benefit smoothly.
On the first day of returning to Jindu City, Che Quanyi, who was in charge of the city, sent someone to deliver the will of the King of Shu, reprimanded Tie Kite's various sins, and ordered him to tie his hands into the city.
Iron Kite was unwilling to disobey the will of the King of Shu again, so despite the opposition of the generals, he ordered people to tie his hands behind his back, and more than a dozen cronies and generals also followed his example and entered the city together to ask for guilt, including the fierce general Tang Weitian.
The leader of the Advent Army did not follow up, but he came from afar as a guest, and did not dare to make a mistake, so he honestly waited in the camp outside the city.
The news of the murder of the King of Shu changed everything.
The Yizhou soldiers and the descending army outside the city felt that the iron kite should be released at this time, but Che refused wholeheartedly, and ordered the soldiers outside the city to disperse and set up camps, and the generals and leaders entered the city to listen to the order, and if they did not obey, they would stop supplying grain and grass.
The Yizhou soldiers hesitated, but the descendant army only trusted the iron kite alone, shouting to break into the city to save the general, so the Jindu City closed the city gates, and it is said that they also sent messengers to gather troops in various places.
The situation is becoming more and more tense, the Yizhou army has no generals, and the descending army urgently needs a leader at this time, Xu Dashi feels that he is in charge, but the other leaders think that since everyone has surrendered to the iron kite, the previous position is naturally invalid.
After the quarrel, there is a competition, Xu Dashi can become the hundred-eyed king that everyone fears, and he does have some real ability, and he has lost three heavenly kings in a row, and the last one is Du Heimao.
Now the people who support the Hundred Eyes Heavenly King are not only the Descendant Army, but even the Yizhou soldiers are willing to listen to his orders, just while Duan Siyong is speaking, the soldiers who are watching Xu Dashi are scattering and running away, preparing armor mounts, and will attack the city together to rescue the iron kite.
"General Tie Er, the younger brother of General Tie Da, just arrived the day before yesterday, where is he now?"
"Haven't you heard?" Duan Siyong was surprised, "If General Tie Er is here, everyone will definitely listen to him, and there is no need to compete for the position of leader." Did he go straight into the city? ”
Xu Ji had contact with Tie Eagle, and felt that he didn't look like the kind of pedantic person who only wanted to save his brother, so he shook his head, "It shouldn't be, there must have been an accident in the middle." ”
"I'll inquire." Duan Siyong volunteered, turned around to leave, and immediately turned back, "I have to find a hiding place for Gongzi first, so that the Hundred Eyes Heavenly King can't find out." ”
Duan Siyong took Xu Ji and two of his entourage to a forage shed, "Gongzi will hold up here for a while, I don't dare to go anywhere else, only the groom here is familiar with me, and I know that he won't be able to come for a while." I went to inquire about the whereabouts of General Tie Er, and if he had already entered the city, or if there was an accident, I advised Gongzi not to stay here for a long time, but to escape from the camp. ”
Xu Ji nodded, "I'm sorry for you." ”
"Childe, don't say such things, I'm happy to be able to do things for Childe."
Duan Siyong left in a hurry, and Song Wushou immediately said, "Mr. Xu, is this person credible?" It's quite talkative, but it doesn't look like a hero. ”
Xu Ji smiled: "It's an old man I met in the Eastern Capital, he should be trustworthy, wait for him for a while." ”
Duan Siyong never showed up, and the horseman was nowhere to be seen, the three of them sat on the hay pile to rest, Song Wushou was not very familiar with Yizhou and the Descending Army, but it did not affect his judgment of the situation, and he talked endlessly, thinking that the Descending Army would be defeated, "I know how difficult it is to attack the city, they don't even have a ladder, why should they climb the city?" The city only needs to cut off the supply of food and grass and hold on for a few days, and the descending army will have to give up. The Descending Army is also interesting, not called a general, what is it called 'Heavenly King', I think ......"
Suddenly there was a sound of footsteps outside, quickly approaching, and someone said: "Search all places......
Song Wushou exclaimed: "What did I say, it must be a whistleblower surnamed Duan." ”
"They searched for people everywhere, not Duan Siyong's informant."
"What to do? We have nowhere to hide......"
Ma Jin, who had not spoken, suddenly stood up, neatly stuffed the two burdens into the haystack, and then pushed Xu Ji onto the baggage, took two wooden forks from nearby, gave one to Song Wushou, bent down to fork the grass, and quickly covered the burden and people.
Song Wushou was stunned for a while, and also followed the forked grass.
Xu Ji lay on top of the burden, motionless.
The door was pushed open, and a few soldiers entered, and when they saw two men without armor forking the grass, thinking that they were grooms who were guarding the forage house, one soldier asked, "Have any strangers been here?" ”
Ma Jin stopped forking the grass, raised his hand to wipe the non-existent beads of sweat on his forehead, shook his head and said, "No." ”
Song Wushou smiled: "Who likes to come to this kind of place?" What are the brothers called? Is there a spy who has infiltrated the camp? Is there a bounty for catching it? Later, when I take a break, I'll look around. What were you doing yelling outside? I thought it was going to be fighting, but if I listened closely, it didn't look like it. If you want to say that this year is really cold enough, we in Yizhou are not like this in previous years......"
Song Wushou kept nagging, several soldiers didn't like to listen, turned around and left, they were ordered to look for people everywhere, and they didn't have time to delay in one place for too long.
Song Wushou closed the door, listened for a while, let out a long breath, turned to Ma Jin and said, "It's really dangerous, fortunately, I have a quick mind, and I told them to leave." ”
Ma Jin pushed aside the messy grass, Xu Ji nodded to him, and then said, "General Song sent two entourage, and he really had foresight. ”
Song Wushou said: "Let's just avoid it for a while, wait a while, all the people in the camp are going to attack the city, let's just take the opportunity to escape." Looking at it like this, it's impossible to go north again, let's go back to Jingzhou. ”
"I have to wait for Duan Siyong's news."
Song Wu looked at the outside with his hand on the crack in the door, "There is news that I have come back a long time ago, maybe it was an accident...... Oh, they're going to attack the city, and I saw a lot of people, and the drums, and you heard that, right? The opportunity must not be missed, Mr. Xu has made a decision early, and he died here for no reason, it is not worth ......"
Xu Ji didn't answer, and sat on the haystack with Ma Jin, waiting silently.
Song Wushou just talked a lot, but he didn't insist on his own opinion.
"It's coming, it's coming." Song Wushou said suddenly.
"Who's coming?" Xu Ji got up and asked.
"Wait, I'll take a look at ......" Song Wushou took a few steps back, turned around and said, "It's surnamed Duan, and I brought a few people, this time it's going straight to us." ”
Majin also stood up and picked up the wooden fork again.
Duan Siyong pushed the door in, and when he saw that Xu Ji was still there, he breathed a sigh of relief, "The Yizhou soldiers brought by Gongzi were not strict-mouthed, and the news was leaked, and the Hundred Eyes Heavenly King ordered the camp to be searched, I thought it was ...... Now that it's okay, he is in a hurry to attack the city, thinking that Childe has fled. ”
"These are ......," Xu Ji asked.
Duan Siyong patted his head, "These four are all the guards of General Tie, I asked them for news, and they are willing to help." ”
A guard stepped forward and arched his hand: "In Xia Chen Wa'er, I followed General Tie to see Mr. Xu, Mr. Xu must not remember ......."
"It looks familiar." Xu Ji smiled and stepped forward to give his hand.
Chen Wa'er said: "No one has seen General Tie Er enter the camp these days, but there is a small strange thing, if it wasn't for Brother Duan to ask, we wouldn't have taken it seriously. Xu Dashi's adviser is named Wang Dian, Mr. Xu knows him, right? ”
"Acquaintance."
"Since the night before yesterday, there have been a lot of soldiers outside the tent where Wang Dian lives, and outsiders are not allowed to enter casually, and he himself rarely comes out, everyone says that Wang Dian's old injuries have recurred and he is about to die, but now that I think about it, it may not be."
Xu Ji thought for a while, "What about Xu Dashi?" ”
"Leading the troops to attack the city, I don't think he really wants to save people, but to force the city to kill General Tie."
"How many people are left in the camp?"
"Not much, three or four hundred people, a few of us can't leave the camp under the pretext of not being ordered by General Tie, so we stay."
"Can Brother Chen summon more people?"
"You can summon more than a dozen, if you can really find the second general of the iron two, it will be different."
"Okay, in that case, I'll take it all the time."
Chen Wa'er, Duan Siyong and the others were shocked, and Xu Ji smiled: "Send me to Wang Dian." ”
Duan Siyong hurriedly said, "What if the second general is not there?" Or has he already been killed? After all, there is no definite message. ”
"Then I'll persuade Wang Dian to help, and find out the second general no matter what." Xu Ji stretched out his hands, indicating that they could be tied.
The five people on the opposite side looked at each other, and Duan Siyong said: "Then the wronged son, don't tie your hands, these two brothers should also go quickly, if there is any case, everyone will fight." ”
Duan Siyong and four guards "escorted" Xu Ji and the other three to Wang Dian's residence.
Wang Dian had been badly burned and weakened, so he did not leave the camp with the army, and outside his tent, at least twenty guards were guarded, all of whom were subordinates of Xu Dashi, the king of the Hundred Eyes.
"I've found Xu Ji!" Duan Siyong said loudly.
One person entered the account and reported, and soon came out, "Let Xu Ji come in alone." ”
Xu Ji nodded his head to a few people and walked to the tent alone.
The tent was relatively dark, and Xu Ji couldn't help but be a little surprised when he got used to it for a while before he could see the situation inside.
The iron eagle was indeed here, drinking opposite Wang Dian, smiling, not at all looking like he was trapped.
